CDP sets March resident training schedule
The Center for Domestic Preparedness (CDP) has released its resident training calendar for the month of March 2023.
Healthcare training during the month includes Emergency Medical Operations for CBRNE Incidents, Framework for Healthcare Emergency Management, Healthcare Leadership for Mass Casualty Incidents (HCL) and Hospital Emergency Response Training for Mass Casualty Incidents (HERT) offerings.
The two HCL and HERT classes will culminate in an Integrated Capstone Event, or ICE. An ICE is a comprehensive exercise at the end of a training week where students from multiple courses and disciplines work together to respond to simulated incidents patterned after real-world events.
Law enforcement offerings include the CDP’s Field Force Extrication Tactics and Field Force Operations courses.
Hazardous materials offerings include the center’s Hazardous Materials Operations; Hazardous Materials Technologies: Sampling, Monitoring, and Detection; and Hazardous Materials Technician courses.
Additionally, the CDP is offering its Managing Public Information for All Hazards Incidents and Radiological Emergency Response Operations courses.
Registration for these opportunities is currently open. To apply, visit https://cdp.dhs.gov/training-calendar.
CDP training is fully funded for state, local, tribal, and territorial emergency responders, to include roundtrip airfare, meals and lodging.
